I bought this little truck to replace my big, gas-guzzling Dodge Ram, as a more maneuverable and economical daily driver.  This truck has the wimpy 2.2L 4-cylinder and 5-speed manual transmission just like my '99 Sonoma did, but at least I have a CD player and air conditioning this time.  I liked the sound and power that came with having a V-8, but when all you ever need to haul around are dogs, pigs, and motorcycles, an in-line 4-cylinder is all that's necessary.  I got an amazing deal on this truck, too, more than $5000 off of retail.  I plan on keeping this one for a while, so I also purchased a 5-year, 60000 mile extended warranty.
